Generally I really like #DamiLee's #YouTube videos but this one, along with the video extolling the virtues and wonders of a very inaccessible house she's proudly designing, reveal what to me seems like a lack of connection to a grounded reality that accounts for real people living real lives.

Current #AR and #VR #tech isn't practical in public environments, and what those #technologies may ultimately provide can't ever transcend the realities of physical spaces.

Meta's wild prototype Flamera headset looks straight out of a sci-fi film.

And the strange, bug-eyed lens design isn't just for fun. The Flamera's odd lens is specifically designed to guide light in a way that defeats the perspective problems that most AR headsets suffer.

It's an alternative to the Meta Quest Pro and upcoming Apple Vision Pro, both of which try to crush the perspective problem with raw computational power.

I’m posting this from one of three #AR monitors on my ceiling as I recline in bed. Sometimes living in the future is actually cool.

So far all of my life's work has been gobbled up by these tech bros. #VR, #AR, and #AI get tossed into the worthless pile while I've been using all of it daily. What I'm using it for and what they are promising are radically different but it still gets grouped together.

Here's the link to that article I screen capped above. I did that because I didn't want that person making a reasonable point to be dragged into "it's all good actually" that I'm making now.

I'm still quite shocked and pissed off by this bad news : the layoff of the #ThirdRoom team and indefinite pause on the project, due to lack of funds ... : apparently the main funds providers are diverting their attention from one hype to another (metaverse to AI) while there are actual productive usecases for the tech developed already (but needs some brushing)
and @EU_Commission @EC_DIGIT @EC_NGI funds are totally not adequate to support this :/ what a waste 🥶 #vr #ar #metaverse #floss #libre

@kierkegaank Don’t discount entertainment. #AR might (stress might) yield some interesting twists beyond gaming. As for #AI that will yield entertainment as well, once it crashes and burns and takes so much with it.

I’m a bit of a negative Nancy and looking at the 2 BIG tech trends now I’m not sure what’s what with my biases

With #AI I see a new phase of automation of administrative work, but just a support tool for less strictly defined tasks. You’ll still need professional humans to do the actual work when it’s not highly procedural

With #AR I can’t see convincing use cases beyond commercial telepresence in soulsucking meetings, and $$ gaming

Am I too Nancy or are we seeing #Nvidia and #Apple peak now?

And now to something completely different: for a project I am looking for AR/XR glasses with the following features: camera with the abilty to live stream the content to a remote audience, two way audio connection with this audience, and ideally the option to read/see feedback from the audience on the AR display. If there is a very robust and convincing solution without the latter, maybe audio feedback is enough, too. What would you recommend?

So after a bit of tweaking I finished my AR-15 CQC (Close Quarter Combat). The main issue with the old configuration was the Monstrum 3X had really poor eye-boxing and the color was off.

Changes from the earlier configuration:

* replaced the Monstrum 3x magnifier with a Sig Sauer Juliet3 flip-to-side magnifier

* Added hybrid 3-point sling

* Moved red dot and juliet3 closer to the eye giving it priority over the 45 degree backup irons in terms of placement

* Removed fingershelf from 45 degree fore grip.

🪦 Lessons From the Catastrophic Failure of the Metaverse
—The Nation

「 The Ford Pinto–esque failure of this enterprise, finally put to bed by Zuckerberg himself in May, cost people their jobs, investors their money, people their time.

Out on August 4, it is #ElectronicMusic featuring :Strattzr: @Strattzr and :Robin: @Robin, two foxes passionate about AR and VR.

"Reality Collapse" was coined by Jack Clark, the former policy director of #OpenAI. It's about the end of reality caused by generative #AI combined with #VR and #AR reality generation tech. :StrattzrVR: :RobinRainbow:

So, I’m low-key thinking of writing my first-ever graphics-heavy software. (Specifically, to do with VR / UIs, but not gaming.)

Thing is, my experience is with PLT & compilers, distsys, FOSS … but _extremely_ not graphics, GPUs, or single-host performance of pretty much any kind.

I need advice. If I want to learn some relatively-low-level graphics stuff, but I have _zero_ relevant background; where do I start?

Any resources for me (tutorials, books, well-known starter projects?)

(Also, any Mastodon accounts I should follow on this topic? Poke me if you're into this stuff and I'll follow you! :P)

I've been really enjoying this Youtube series on Apple’s AR tooling. It started before the #AppleVisionPro and #visionOS were announced but it's covering the entire process of building an #AR game for iOS in #Swift, starting with the 3D models. It is one of the great recent examples that is all-in on #SwiftUI too. #iOSDev https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOsr5_dgp7A

Google is no longer building its own augmented reality glasses.The company has chosen to focus on #AR software instead. https://www.engadget.com/google-is-no-longer-building-its-own-augmented-reality-glasses-062555498.html

I def want to go into more creative prototyping for #ar and #vr with tools such as #figma, but I have no idea where to start. If someone knows something, let me know :)

Google is reportedly cancelling their AR project Iris. I REALLY HOPE Iris was their mixed reality ski goggle headset, and not the simpler glasses shown here demoing real time translation.

I owned the Focals by North glasses, and I can't tell you how transformative that experience was. It was NOT any kind of real AR. It was a simple heads up display, with a UI like a smartwatch, but at eye level. It was amazing.

I truly believe we're skipping an INCREDIBLY important step trying to race to magic sci-fi AR. So many interactions with our technology would be wonderfully streamlined with a simple graphic or text at eye level.

Here's the article on Google Iris https://www.businessinsider.com/google-ar-iris-augmented-reality-smart-glasses-2023-6

Apple is the latest tech company to release a headset and call it the future of computing. But just because Tim Cook wants you to put a screen on your face doesn’t mean you have to.

On #TechWontSaveUs, I spoke with @brianmerchant about Apple’s Vision Pro, the isolating vision it offers, and why we shouldn’t hesitate to oppose it.

I was thrilled to chat with @markhurst about Apple’s Vision Pro headset and its vision for the future of computing. We agree it shouldn’t be embraced, but ridiculed to try to stop it from being entrenched!
